Communication

The Speech Program is focused on human communication with the capacity to inform and motivate others.  This emphasis on influence produces students who go on to become successful lawyers, teachers, business people, politicians and productive members of society.  Through the study of instrumental human symbolic interaction the individual becomes comfortable in interpersonal settings, proficient in public discourse and able to guide groups toward shared goals. Our program combines traditional communication theory and connection with media that puts students in a competitive position to face the challenges of today’s evolving workplace in both complexity and the technological demands that impact communication at every level.
